Notes

I really enjoyed this project. It’s a beautiful, gentle introduction to lace. I now feel braver and will try to tackle more complex patterns.

My skein weighed 119g. The border took 25g of yarn and I have 12g left. I did 10 repeats.

I used Jenny’s Surprisingly Stretchy Bind-Off because I tend to bind off tightly. It’s slow going but does the trick!

Must improve my blocking skills! They are not really doing this shawl justice…

no 2 for 10 shawls in 2010
